I have a brown belt in jiujitsu, it's pretty much useless in the wild. Only usefull fighting sport is kickboxing

Well, the ones I know of are Taekwondo, kickboxing, Ju-jitsu, a couple of types of Karate, possibly Kung Fu and Judo. I'm sure there are more I don't know of though.
I'd say go for the kickboxing course, if the jujistu is the more realistic UFC style-take that too. Otherwise take Judo so you'll at least have improvement in your balance and some grappling moves to go along with your striking.

No offense, but most likely
you're just useless with it in the wild.
The thing with martial arts is that they don't make or break a fight. One isn't objectively better than another in the sense that a kung fu guy can always beat a karate guy or whatever. The point of martial arts is to make
you a better fighter; if that's not happening then don't bother (unless you have other reasons for training like fun). Some are arguably more effective than others, but at the end of the day, it's all about you. Lots of guys who win fights haven't had any formal training whatsoever. Pick what works for you, train hard, have fun.
Shop around, Matthew, and see what you like. There are as many different martial arts opinions as there are personalities; the best way to choose is to see for yourself.

Word.
If you have to think about using it then you've messed it up. Anything you learn should naturally integrate with whatever you would have done if you had no training at all. In my (limited) experience if you fight someone who is just good it makes little difference anyway. On the other hand if you find it natural it does make a lot of difference, especially against guys who think they can take you just because their brute strength clearly outmatches yours.
